Anybody else short US 30 Bond

I wonder, is the bid under the ZB/ZN mean someone isn't buying the strength in equities. Or have we entered into some sort of Goldie locks twilight zone economy I'm not aware of.
 
there is no rhyme or reason

I reckon its the specs shorting and the fed longing

so each has a preset level they want to keep and it just ranges imbetween the levels
 
it matters what inflation is doing though

and its at 6%

going long ZB as a safe haven is risky IMO because you are on the same side of the trade as everyone else, the fundamentals do not support ZB here, so when someone big pulls funds outta ZB, lookout below.
 
with CPI as high as it is I am shocked like you are, I trade the intra day tape and levels so it is what it is. In reading some economists interpretations some see this as a short term issue. Like someone on here said before "markets don't have to make sense and can stay irrational longer than most can stay liquid."

Does anybody trade ZN/ZB afterhours ie 6pm-7am EST. How is the price movement during that time. Thanks

Generally one way action with low volume, unless you are position trading, do not waste your time after 3PM!

I have, the TY, but don't anymore. I usually stop when the pits close at 3:00 ET. Too thin, not enough movement, but if you like trding low volatility, it might be for you.
